My FORMATTING/Battery BUG

If so, it sounds like you have a specific issue that needs to be addressed separately.

Could you describe for us exactly what actions cause your reader to hang?
With the reader not connected to the charger it goes into a "formatting" routine that does not end (in a reasonable time) without intervention. Connecting it to the charger and executing the battery fix routine fixes the problem temporarily. As I recall, I did not experience this problem before the Sony official update.

I have been thinking more about the battery bug that I see. In the case w/o the formatting problem when the meter reads half or 1/4 full, I connect the reader to the charger. The red light only is on for a very short time. I then guess that the battery indication was in error-the battery was fully charged. I then return it to my wife's waiting hands. If I connect the charger AND turn the reader on to a page etc, the lighting bolt DOES remain on as long as the charger is connected even though the red light goes out.
